Bio
My name is Sean Brennan. I was born in Oak Ridge, Tennesse and have lived in NYC, Boston, LA, and Nashville. My music is from the heart acoustic based folk/rock, depending on who I am playing with/for. I play guitar, piano, mandolin, banjo and bouzouki. I have a lifetime of experience playing and singing traditional Irish music, which influences my music as well as my many years of playing in alternative bands (the pigs...ezra clock) in Boston in the 90s.
I am influenced by so many artists and bands it is hard to list just a few... Shane McGowan, Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, Van Morrison, Bruce Cockburn, Tom Waits, Uncle Tupelo, David Gray, Sean Tyrell, Paul Brady, Springsteen.... it goes on and on.
I have almost 30 years experience playing live in all sorts of venues from small pubs to small theaters and festivals, with trad ensembles, in sessions, with rock bands, solo and in duos. I love performing my music anywhere and everywhere, and strive constantly to innovate and enrich my repertoire.
